Black ash
Friday, Sept. 13, 5-6:30 p.m.
The black ash, a culturally significant tree species to the Indigenous peoples of the Northeast, is also important to regional ecosystems. On Sept. 13, the Vermont Urban and Community Forestry Program is hosting a talk at the North Branch Nature Center in Montpelier (713 Elm St.) from 5-6:30 p.m. about the black ash tree and its role in Vermont ecosystems, the threats it is facing from the emerald ash borer and what is being done to save it. Although free, registration is required. Following the presentation, attendees can take a guided walk to a small ash stand. Learn more.
